The code that calculates the legacy ACPI table size for migration compatibility uses max_cpus when calculating legacy_aml_len (the size of the DSDT and SSDT tables). However, the SSDT grows according to APIC ID limit, not max_cpus.
The bug is not triggered very often because of the 4k alignment on the table size. But it can be triggered if you are unlucky enough to cross a 4k boundary. For example, using the following: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine pc-i440fx-2.0 -smp 99,sockets=3,cores=33,threads=1 qemu-system-x86_64: Warning: migration may not work. Change the legacy_aml_len calculation to use apic_id_limit, to calculate the right size.
